Chapter 98 Burning Prospero
The emperor's original intention was to catch Magnus and squat on the toilet for him, just as atonement, and he could free up his hands to repair the damaged subspace crack.
However, Horus, the war commander who has regarded Magnus as a thorn in his eyes, directly sent someone to forge the imperial edict, and then tampered with the emperor's original intention, allowing the commander of the Space Wolf Legion, Wolf King Rieman Ruth, to clear Magnus and his Thousand Sons Legion under his command.
Just one word difference, but the meaning is very different.
As the Emperor's executioner, Riemann Russ naturally did not know the emperor's original intention, but misread it as the emperor intended to erase the Thousand Sons' Legion, just like the former Second Legion and Eleventh Legion.
In addition, he took the lead in proposing the think tank legion that disbanded Magnus, so both sides are old enemies.
Then Rieman Russ, who was stubborn, led his Space Wolf Legion to Prospero with murderous intent.
Magnus, who had realized that he had made a big mistake, fell into autism directly. He then closed Prospero's external contacts and ordered the Thousand Sons to disarm all his troops, and at the same time divided the naval fleet into several tribes and sent them to other places to avoid conflict with the emperor's messenger who came to capture him due to misunderstandings. Then Magnus locked himself in the library and frantically looked for ways to make up for his mistakes, while silently waiting for the emperor's anger to come.
But his loyal act made Rieman Ruth mistakenly think that the Thousand Sons' Legion really wanted to rebel, and the evil gods interfered with it, which made Rieman Ruth's ultimatum not pass on to Magnus's ears.
A bloody battle that makes the loyalists kill each other and the betrayers laugh to the sky is about to break out on Prospero!
In fact, this killing between the Space Marines could have been avoided at the last moment, as long as the Qianzi Legion obediently surrendered.
But Azek Aliman, an advocate of the Psychological Telegraph Project, knew clearly that anyone could survive the emperor's rage, but he would undoubtedly die.
Therefore, after Magnus locked himself in the library, Azek Aliman immediately tampered with the Primarch's orders and asked the Thousand Sons to prepare to fight the Space Wolf Legion to the end in the name of protecting Prospero.
A battle that could have been avoided finally broke out due to various coincidences and calculations.
Without air support, the Thousand Son Legion could only concentrate its forces to defend the capital of Prospero, the city of light, Tizka.
After his ultimatum failed to get a response, the Wolf King Rieman Ruth immediately ordered the Sixth Legion fleet to bomb Prospero's entire planet, causing the beautiful planet that had accumulated countless treasures of knowledge to instantly turn into a hell on earth.
But because the Thousand Son Legion concentrated all its forces in the capital Tizka, the psychic shields supported by countless psychics successfully resisted the crazy bombing of the Sixth Legion's naval fleet.
Seeing that the naval fleet could not blow away Tizka's psychic shield, the wolf king Rieman Rus personally led the Space Wolf Legion to the surface of the planet to launch a fierce ground attack on Tizka in the fighting style they were best at.
Immediately, two extremely loyal imperial legions launched a fierce urban offensive and defensive battle on this distant planet.
Almost every moment, loyal imperial warriors died at the hands of their fellow tribes.
The blood soon dyed the entire city red, and the war turned magnificent buildings into ruins.
Countless imperial civilians died under guns and cannons of imperial warriors who should have protected them.
Although there are numerous psychics in the Thousand Son Legion, the coalition composed of Space Wolves, the Imperial Imperial Guards, and the Silent Nuns were quickly defeated and retreated step by step.
In particular, the silent nun who specializes in restraining the psychics was like entering a no-man on the battlefield, slaughtering the psychic warriors of the Thousand Son Legion.
But the Silent Nuns soon encountered fierce resistance. An imperial army composed of pure mortals successfully blocked the Silent Nuns' offensive pace at the cost of casualties, allowing the Thousand Sons' Legion to reorganize the defense line when it was breathing.
However, as the imperial imperial guards like gods descended to earth appeared on the battlefield, the elite imperial army called the spire guards quickly suffered a devastating blow, but no ordinary soldier fled from his position from beginning to end.
These ordinary soldiers fulfilled their oaths with firm will and supreme courage, slowed down the attackers with their flesh and blood, and bought time for the Thousand Son Legion to succeed.
When the psychics of the Thousand Sons Legion join forces to release powerful psychic spells, even the Emperor's Imperial Guard must temporarily avoid the edge.
But the bloodthirsty space wolves rushed towards each other without fear. Even though their hard armor was melted by flames and their strong bodies were burned by lightning, they still wanted to chop the chainsaw axe in their hands on the heads of these cowardly psychics, so that they could understand that pure men should play close-knit fights, even if they were to pay tragic battles for this.
As the fearless space wolf troops attacked the defense line of the Thousand Son Legion like a tide, the psychic nemesis, the Silent Nuns appeared on the battlefield again.
These silent nuns who are regarded as inaccessible are like natural silence aura. Any psychic will be cut off from the contact with the subspace as long as these nuns are close to each other and cannot extract subspace energy for their own use.
Soon the defense line that the Thousand Son Legion reorganized was torn apart again, and at the same time, various large war machines were successively put on the battlefield, making the battle even more tragic.
The Thousand Son Legion, which could no longer defend the city's periphery, had to give up the outer defense line and retreat to the inner city streets to play street battles with the attackers.
The fierce battle lasted from dawn to late night, and from late night to dawn, which lasted for several days.
The once beautiful city was completely ruined, and countless broken limbs covered the streets and alleys.
At this time, the Thousand Son Legion had suffered heavy casualties, and one out of ten soldiers in the army was left, with less than a thousand people remaining.
But they still stick to the last line of defense, the Pyramid of Fittp.
Because their protozoa, Magnus is in this pyramid, any invader who wants to harm their protozoa must cross their bodies.
At this time, the wolf king Rieman Ruth, who initiated the war, finally appeared on the battlefield.
"Magnus, when will you hide, a cowardly coward? Do you still have to watch all your descendants die before you?" The roar of the wolf king resounded throughout the battlefield: "If you are still a man, come out to fight to the death with me, and use your blood to clean up the sins you have committed!"
The deafening artillery fire finally subsided. The two soldiers who were fighting fiercely on the devastated battlefield stopped fighting and stared at the slowly opened golden door.
